Yeah, but you're an amateur fry cook and I come from a long line of fry cooks that don't live past 25.

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai  

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I really liked the first movie. Cool procedural approach to a mystery, interesting/creepy villainy, great landscape, fantastic female lead, and a very Silence of the Lambs vibe.

Art Crawl!!!

I liked the first movie too. I don't think I've seen the other two. (I think that they're on Netflix now, right?)

Because books.

I heard Lisbeth and the rest of the book were worth it, but I just didn't care anymore. I'll see the movies, because, hey, Daniel Craig, but I gave up on the books.

I'll see the new movie, but the original movie is great and worth checking out. Noomi Rapace gives an incredible performance.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm not so sure about that. I forced my way through all three, but I was so angry about it by the end of the third one, when something ACTUALLY HAPPENED, that it was too late. I'm sure they make great movies, though!

Jesse validates my decision! Whoot!

I'm still angry to have read all three of those books.

But you took one for the team! Or something.

Oh yeah, that's what I meant -- I'm glad my sacrifice was good for something!

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-

I thought the Swedish versions were good enough(and...graphic, omg!) that I can't imagine why there has to be another one.
